The Princess and the Pea

Traditional story of a princess whose royal background is put to the test by a pea placed under several mattresses. Will she notice the tiny lump in the bed as a real princess should, or is she an impostor?

This fully social distanced and COVID secure site-specific journey around Eastbury Manor House, one of the most iconic buildings in Barking, is an adaptation of The Princess and The Pea, the famous and much loved literary fairy tale originally written by Hans Christian Andersen about a young woman whose royal identity is validated by a test of her sensitivity.

This event takes place at Eastbury Manor House, Barking IG11 9SN
